IsGreenModeOn not working anymore (v3.60~57)

I use the IsGreenModeOn setting in the Nodered VRM Node Api, using Installations, Modify Dynamic ESS Configuration to switch between green and trade mode.

Trade mode in the morning to sell first solar electricity at higher tarrif and Green mode around 12:00 preventing electricity usage from grid at the end of noon, which occurs in trade mode unfortunately.

This worked for a while, but since a few weeks it doesn’t work anymore, the isGreenModeOn stays false when requesting it an also in the VRM portal.

Also when setting green mode in the VRM portal, the isGreenModeOn stays false when requesting with Nodered.

Firmware version: v3.60~49
Firmware version: v3.60~57

Since 3.60 the settings of DESS are synchronized with the GX device.

Not sure, if that would affect the function of the VRM API here, but you now could also query the dbus on the path System/0/DynamicEss/OperatingMode to identify if green or trademode is enabled.

Thank you, It works using the Dynamic Ess Control Node now:

Maybe documentation needs update?
